You will also witness the breath-taking unique panorama of the Kansas and Missouri Rivers. From June 26 through 29, 1804, the Lewis and Clark Expedition camped at Kaw Point at the river’s mouth. They praised the scenery in their accounts and noted the area would be a good site for a fort. Beginning in 1854, steamboats operated regularly from Kansas City to Lawrence and Topeka, and sometimes as far as Fort Riley. This traffic continued through the territorial period and the early years of statehood, falling off rapidly about 1860.

The last steamer to travel the Kansas was the Alexander Majors, which was chartered in 1866 to run between Kansas City and Lawrence until the railroad bridge at the mouth of the river, which was destroyed by floods, could not be rebuilt. This traffic into statehood gave the Kansas legal status as a navigable stream in the eyes of the Federal government. In the 1860s, the country’s goods were increasingly transported by the extensive and comparatively efficient railroad system.

After you touchdown back into the loving arms of mother earth, you will be a part of history as the first manned flight was a balloon flight.
